[Wine]Getting Rosetta Stone language software to work

[mailinglist at brenart.net]

Hi, I'm trying to run a software package called Rosetta Stone (It's a
language training package)

Anyway this is the closest match in the AppDB
http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=2497
Though my version is 2.0.8.1N

The catch of this software in general is that the CD needs to be in the
drive for it to work.

I got them to send me a version where this isn't true, but in windows it
requires me to use the subst command so that my directory looks like a
drive (or to create a share and use net use)

So now when I launch it with wine, it tells me no language pack found,
which is what I expect, since I'm guessing it searches A:,B:,...,Z: and if
it doesn't find what it expects in any of those locations it gives up.

Or maybe it uses whatever that registry entry is for mapped drives? I
dunno. I'm hoping there's a way to make a link in Linux so that I can get
this software running (it's that 2nd to last reason I ever reboot to
Windows)

I tried ln -s /directory/to/languagepack /M:

And that made a link, but didn't alleviate the problem.
I tried ln -s /directory/to/languagepack M:
and that failed as expected
I tried ln -s /directory/to/languagepack ./M: in the application
directory, and that failed as well (not as I expected)

My wine version is 20041201 running on Debian Unstable

Thanks for any help. (Sorry for being long winded, figured better too much
info than too little.)
